Blues Beatles is a Blues band that mixes the melodies of the Beatles with traditional Blues arrangements, a mix that has been winning in Brazil, the USA, and Europe. They always become an “instant sensation” everywhere they go and play: from the USA (New York City, Las Vegas, Chicago, Memphis, Orlando, Charlotte, Montgomery, Chattanooga, among many others), to Denmark (Aarhus, Randers, Esbjerg, Skanderborg, Skagen, AAbybro, Agger), Brasíl (Goiânia, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and Belo Horizonte), among others.

After the release of the acclaimed début CD, Get Back to The Blues, and nine international tours (in North America and Europe) the band recorded in 2019 their second CD, Let It Blues, at AS Studios, Brasíl. For this CD, singer Marcos Viana, keyboard player Flavio Naves, bassist Bruno Falcao, and drummer Fred Barley joined forces with Fred Sunwalk on guitar and Denilson Martins on saxophone, and the result could not have been better. Enjoy explosive and intense new renditions on classics like “Drive my Car,” “Come Together”; the blues lives on tracks like “Let it Be,” “Yer Blues,” “Chains,” “Can ́t Buy Me Love,” “One after 909,” and “Love Me Do”; “Something” and “Oh Darling” bring that calm-yet-intense vibe that Blues Beatles are known for. Most of the vocal melodies are kept in their original form, but interpreted with Marcos Viana’s unique voice, in an unpretentious and heart-felt way. The arrangements combine blues and soul grooves that suit the vocals of the songs while adding a different feel to them. Instrumental solos and improvisation, typical elements of the blues, are an integral part of the Blues Beatles style.
